Summary

This trial will compare the application of Glass Ionomer Cement (GIC) sealant with no-intervention for the most clinically- and cost-effective strategy for managing MIH molars without post-eruptive breakdown, in a school setting, using low-technology and child-friendly dental techniques. Methods/Design: This two-arm, parallel group, patient-randomized controlled, superiority trial will have treatment provided in schools. Schoolchildren (age 6-9), presenting at least one MIH molar (n molars = 195,) will have random allocation to treatment with or without the application of a GIC sealant (GC Fuji TRIAGE®, GC Europe, Leuven, Belgium). Baseline measures and outcome data will be assessed through participant report and clinical examination. The primary outcome is the presence of post-eruptive fracture and development of caries lesions. Secondary outcomes are: (1) self-reported dental hypersensitivity; (2) oral health-related-quality of life, reported by children; (3) plaque index, (4) gingival health, (5) caries status (according to ICCMS scores) in primary and permanent teeth; (6) the incremental cost-effectiveness. A trained and calibrated examiner will evaluate the treated teeth every six months post treatment for a period of 36 months. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression tests will be used to investigate the primary outcome. The Logistic Regression and Poisson Regression Analysis will be used to analyze the secondary outcomes (α=5%).

Conditions
